  • Summary

  • As our nation grapples with racial injustice throughout society, the situation has many of us wondering how we can actively work to see the humanity in one another. In Madison, the Goodman South Public Library is hosting a group art exhibition titled “I AM a Man: the Re-humanization of Black Men.” Inspired by curator Sharon Bjyrd’s trip to the National Civil Rights Museum in Memphis, the exhibit showcases work from several local artists examining the de- and re-humanization of Black men in America. Host Bianca Martin spoke with Sharon Bjyrd and Jerry Jordan, one of the exhibiting artists, about the exhibition and its impact. In addition to the exhibit, the library is also hosting community conversations about the display. You can join the conversation at their next event this Saturday, Jan. 18 at Goodman South Madison Library. Wanna talk to us about an episode?
